Dear Parents,
I have been looking forward to this week for so long....Thanksgiving is one of my favorite Holidays! I love being with family and reflecting on just how much I have to be thankful for . Thank you for sharing your children with me each day. I hope this break brings you wonderful family memories and a restful couple of days you each deserve. Be safe in your travels!
Not much new - news this week! A special thanks to Mrs. Lassandro, Mrs. Vought, Mr. Jain, Mrs. Green, Mrs. Stevens, Mr. Sandoval and our own Lavonna Gonzalez for a wonderful week in Robolab! We have all enjoyed it very much!
As you are out and about this week and weekend - please think of our Angel Tree kiddos. There is a tab on my website that still tells what we are seeking for each child.
No Spelling this week! Use this time to work on Night Writes - 3 stories are due on the 30th!
Picture re-takes will occur on Wednesday, December 2. If you would like to have your child’s photo retaken, you must send in the packet that went home last week. If your child was absent on Picture Day, photos will be taken on December 2. Order forms are available in the office
Brownie Troop 676 is collecting old batteries to recycle. Instead of throwing your batteries away this year, please send them to the school so the Brownies can dispose of them properly at a hazardous waste center. Thank you for supporting this effort to "Go Green".
We have a homework epidemic! It isn't coming in. Please help your children to review their planners nightly to complete all assignments. Please note that all homework is posted nightly on this website as well! I will start emailing parents when work is not complete. Your child will aslo stay in study hall until the assignment is returned to school. Thank you for helping me to build responsible students.
